Problem 9 – 13P*: A stone is dropped at dropped from the same point at of the two stones at t t = 0. A second stone, with twice the mass of the first, is t = 100 ms. (a) How far below the release point is the center of mass

= 300 ms? (Neither stone has yet reached the ground.) (b) How fast is the center of mass of the two-stone system moving at that time?

Problem 9 – 22E: A 0.70 kg ball is moving horizontally with a speed of 5.0 m/s when it strikes a vertical wall. The ball rebounds with a speed of 2.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of the change in linear momentum of the ball?

Problem 9 – 28E: Two blocks of masses 1.0 kg and 3.0 kg are connected by a spring and rest on a frictionless surface. They are given velocities toward each other such that the 1.0 kg block travels initially at 1.7 m/s toward the center of mass, which remains at rest. What is the initial velocity of the other block?

Problem 9 – 39P*: A vessel at rest explodes, breaking into three pieces. Two pieces, having equal mass, fly off perpendicular to one another with the same speed of 30 m/s. The third piece has three times the mass of each other piece. What are the magnitude and direction of its velocity immediately after the explosion?

Problem 9 – 40P: An 8.0 kg body is traveling at 2.0 m/s with no external force acting on it. At a certain instant an internal explosion occurs, splitting the body into two chunks of 4.0 kg mass each. The explosion gives the chunks an additional 16 J of kinetic energy. Neither chunk leaves the line of original motion. Determine the speed and direction of motion of each of the chunks after the explosion.

PROBLEM 10-2:

The National Transportation Safety Board is testing the crash-worthiness of a new car. The 2300 kg vehicle, moving at 15 m/s, is allowed to collide with a bridge abutment, which stops it in

0.56 s. What is the magnitude of the average force that acts on the car during the impact?

PROBLEM 10-5:

A force that averages 1200 N is applied to a 0.40 kg steel ball moving at 14 m/s in a collision lasting 27 ms. If the force is in a direction opposite the initial velocity of the ball, find the final speed and direction of the ball.

PROBLEM 10-8*:

Bullets and other missiles fired at Superman simply bounce off his chest (Fig. 10-

27). Suppose that a gangster sprays Superman's chest with 3 g bullets at the rate of 100 bullets/min, and the speed of each bullet is 500 m/s. Suppose too that the bullets rebound straight back with no change in speed. What is the magnitude of the average force on Superman's chest from the stream of bullets?

PROBLEM 10-14P

The figure shows an approximate plot of force magnitude versus time during thecollision of a 58 g

Superball with a wall. The initial velocity of the ball is 34 m/s perpendicular to the wall; it rebounds directly back with approximately the same speed, also perpendicular to the wall. What is F max

, the maximum magnitude of the force on the ball from the wall during the collision?

PROBLEM 10-20:

A 5.20 g bullet moving at 672 m/s strikes a 700 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling in the same direction with its speed reduced to 428 m/s.

(a) What is the resulting speed of the block? (b) What is the speed of the bullet–block center of mass?
